gram from Gen. Terry, saying that Gen.
Sheridan, while at St. Paul, had di-

referred to the secretary of war, who to-
day notified Secretary Lamar that the

A BONANZA FOR LAWYERS.
The Rush For Northern Poetic
Indemnity Lands LIS On.

Special to the Globe.
FARGO, Oak, Oct. 21.-Filings of
Northern Pacific indemnity lands COM
menced at the land Office this
morning as announced. There
was dense mass of humanity
about the doors hours before they were
opened, and the services of the United
States marshal were required to keep
order and make them form in line. Five

tinuOus and rapid work the officials
managed to receive 10S filings in the
seven working hours. Still, at this rate
1t will take week or two to receive all
the claims out. Large numbers of bon
ANA farmers and others, who bought
the lands of the railroad and have made
farms. were present or represented by
attorney. Many of them rendered the
government price of the lands, and
claimed the right to purchase them
under the SpOOner act of last congress.
The money rendered aggregated over
$4,000. 1t was. of course. refused. A
list OF their lands was filed by many
with notice that they intend
to purchase them under the
act named. 1t has been
bonanza for nearly all attorneys, some
from other places sharing the harvest.
Land attorneys charged s25 for making
out papers and as a retaining fee III the
contest for the lands, while most of the
others were content with SO. AT the
latter figure one firm took in 81 2,OG0.

1t is reported that ore lawyer was found
so conscientious that he would not take
any cases, believing that the squatters
have no chance to get anything for their
money. On the Grandin farm many OF
the prominent citizens took claims in
the interest of the owners. The gem
eral feeling is that the squatters have
small chance to get lands and filings
should be refused until the contest with
the Northern Pacific is adjusted.

The Detroits Become Champions
of the World.

Special to The Globe.
BALTIMORE, Oct. 21.-The game at
OriOle park this afternoon between the
Detroit club and the Browns, of st.
Louis, was a miserable exhibition of
ball playing. The disparity between
the two clubs was painfully apparent.
The result was victory in a double
sense for the DetrOitS: first in winning
this particular game. and, secondly, be-
cause it decided the contest for the
championship of the world. the Detroits
having won eight Of the fifteen games
which it was proposed TO play. When
the game first began about 1850 people
occupied seats on the grounds, but
by the time it was terminated
the audience was somewhat depleted
gether with the lack OF any thing calcu-
lated to awaken their interest in the
game, except it be the heavy batting of
the Detroits. On account of the long
lead secured by the league club there
was no betting in the pool rooms. Play
was called at 3:05. Latham, for the
Browns, went first to the bat. He
struck high fly over second base and
went to second on IL passed ball. Glea-
son took his base for being hit by the
pitcher, and made the one run of the
inning for his side, Latham and O'Neil
being put out at the home plate and
FoutZ at second. In the second inning
Robinson scored another run for st.
Louis owing 80 a wild throw
by Richardson. In the fourth inning
Detroit got three runs, one of which
was a home run by Twitchell, who
knocked the ball over the fence at left
field. The run scored by Bennett could
have been prevented, but Boyle let the
ball GO by him at the home plate. The
run gained by O'Neill for ST. Louis in
the fifth inning was due TO Rowe letting
ball struck by Caruthers go between
his legs. One of the four runs gained by
Detroit in this inning was the result of
a wild throw by Gleason. The game
from this point ceased to be q contest.

BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. 21.-The weekly

which is evidently managing the

Having every confidence in the syndi-

confess we are a little curious on the
subject. 1t has been customary hereto
fore at the annual meeting of the direc-

the result of the fiscal year ending Sept.

statement of earnings and expenses is
